THE PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE.
For a long lime utter the violent death of the
late United States Bunk, the administration pa
pers had all the fun of kicking the dead Linn to
themselves; they kicked nml cuifod the poor de
funct monster ill the most shameless fashion. The
last kick and ihutoue which was no doubt Inten
ded to ho llm extinguisher, was performed by Air.
Van Buiiitx outiiu iiKHcinldiiig of the present ses
sion of Congress- Fortunately it is possible for
little men to kick so high, that they foil fiat ou
their backs, especially if they nro " following in
the footsteps." Such lies been tlio case with the
little Magician. H i* last great kick was perpn.
(rated on his back with both feel, and this was no
doubt intended for the finishing stroke.
Now, however, the other party hake goto i
Lion to kick also—biro of Hm Hermitage-—and it
may be presumed therefore flint whenever one
party vents its spilo upon the old monster, the
other will return (lie compliment hy a fling ntlhe
morn recent carcass.
We are perfectly willinglo pit quo of thorn n-
gainst llm other and let thorn fight it out, ttnti
like tlio Kilkeiiuy cats, they Out each other up tol
the tip end of their, tails. The people will stand
hy and see fair piny—at Icnottiiey will keep the
iulo Musician off. Lay an then and "daunt’d ho
lie who first erics hold—eppueh J’*
The Constitution of’the United States was
formed for tho old thirteen, but it was framed
whether designedly or not with n wise foresight
towards prospective increase,both as to territory
and population, which seem* lo us lit this day as
indicative of tlio rarest political sagacity. The
machine works us well with twenty-six wheels as
it did with thirteen, and Few human iuveiitioh*
will bear thus to bu enlarged and carried beyond
it* original design, without throwing the whole
appal mils limn its balance. Wc say it worhn well
for the great mass of the people, and fot the great
interest of progressive civilization nml tlio ad
vancement of civil liberty throughout the world;
hut other momentous questions now' arise for the
pidtticinus of our day, which it becomes them
well to consider. Hitherto political horoscopes
have been cust by the juggling astrologer* of our
time with mi eye rather to things as they have
been thnn ns they are to he—to the past rather
than the future. Now however the star* (the
twenty-six of our political galaxy we munu) have
iissumed new positions and tho fortune* ofpoliti-
cd adventurer* must Lu told anew.
For nn age or two, Virgiuiu seemed to he the
centre ofour political system, purtly from geo
graphical position and extent, hut more from mor
al cutises. Among these wu* the elevated and
chivalrous character of her first settlers. As long
ns die old thirteen remained intout, lierc /nman-
ding position was also maintained, but now, a*
the new census will soon show new elements of
power arc being mnishalled.mid Virginia no lon
ger culminate*iu thu ascendant.
While die great Apnhichiau chain formed a* it
were at once the boundary of our geographical
and political limits, Virginia was die centre of
our system; but coeval with tho departure of
ucarly all the old revolutionary sages and soldiers
is the departure oflier power. A new race lias
sprung op to supplant the old,and u new theatre
of action is just now about to be developed, so
wonderful in its magical gtowili.uud so vast hi
it* extent, dint it umy well confound the little
politician* who manufacture public opinion to
order.
Let our readers cast their eyes over the map of
the greatvnllcy uf the Mississippi—and next over
the census ofit* population (as it come* in) and
then over the late vote for President of the Uni
ted States, and they will quickly perceive, we
humbly think whither die sceptre of the old Do
minion lias departed.
No sagacious mail can throw his eyes over
that vast region,however carelessly,without being
struck with its stupendous physical proportions,
nud likewise with die vast moral and political pow
er which it is henceforth to wield throughout the
future destinies ol'lhis country.
Politician* may rave and rant and combine mid
march and connlcr-tuarch, but there have been,
and arc elements now niwork, silent ns the foot
steps of time and full no -or**, which will CTUsb
their mousing scheme* in their very inception.
It will no longer bo Southern combination!* and
j Northern comhmatwms.lmt it will he the Great
| West. She will swallow them both up, and
scarcely feel a surfeit after the tueul.
However mortifying to our sectional pride
such a contemplation tnny be, we may ns well
turn ouroycs towmds it at once, for ns sure ns
to-morrows sun, thitherward is tlio future seal
amitaniice of power in the United State*.
This conclusion will the more readily be ad
mitted, wkou we look ah>o at die moral power
which lias been silently growing up lu such col-
lossal maturity, while wc have been dreaming of
Old Dominion*—and Southern conventions and
iiulliliculiou mid what not t Do our rcuder*
know that Kentucky has more Colleges than any
.State iu the Union 1 Let Uiis startling fact open
their eye* to the growing importance oftliis im
mense empire. The eminence of her sons indie
Ibrittn, the Pulpit & Sena in may also rival those
of any other Slate in the Union, or nny country
on eardi, nud as n whole, she is decidedly die
most intelligent of the whole twenty-six. Then
look at that young giant, stretching from the 38th
degree of north latitude l» thu southern borders
of Luke Erie, and which has just had die disdn-
guishnd honor of commencing the Western dy
nasty hy tlie elevation of one of her sons to the

to meet the embrace of thus new foster sister, aud
with u wisdom nud foresight in it* direction wor
thy ufall praise.
She has die advantage of tapping the valley far
down the stream, and almost at the termination
of the Apalachinn harrier, mid when the future

MJLLEDGEV1LLE, Dee. 16.
GentlemenV Accompanying this, I send yon a
very singular commutiixnlinii of his Excellency,
[The communication referred to, nppenra in the
lutter of our regular correspondent.] As soon
as it was rend, in dtp House, the following reso
lution ottered by Mr.Toombs, was passed:
Hi* Excellency tho Governor, having iu a spe
cial communication to-day. nailed the attention
ofdiis Hons* to the present and anticipated em-
bnrrnsmcntft of the good people of this State:
Be it therefore Ihsolecd, That his excellency the
Governor, bn, nml he is hereby respectfully re
quested to suggest to the consideration of this
Hottte, at his earliest convenience, soiuo defin
ite measure fur the relief of the people.
But l will give you a more definite ac
count of tho matter. Yesterday morning die
Governor seutthwcommunication ta d»e Senate,
when it was read and laid on die tabic. As soon
ns die House met in the afternoon, the same
.Message was sent there. The Clerk Imd hardly
finished rending it, when Mr. Toombs intro
duced the resolution referred to above, which
wns passed inslanter, undbefore the Loco Foco's
knew whnt it meant. After dinner, Mr. Cul-
liouu introduced n similar resolution into die
Senate, hut the Locos in that end of the Capitol
were not willing tlmt his Excellency should he
called upon to give us any information upon the
subject of his Message extraordinaire—nml they
kept up the fight until dark, when the resolution
passed hy n strict party vote. Thus you will
pniceive, thut his Excellency has been caught in
his own trap. Tho Loco Foco Senators declared
tlmt it wns not the duty of the Govunor to recom
mend any measure—tlmt he had done all that lie
onghtto do in Btnting the condition of the coun
try, &c. &c.—and that it was the duty of the
party in power—i. e. the Harrison party—to de
vise the way* nud moans for relieving tho pen.
pie. The fact is, (hat (he Governor and his
friend* thought this Message, nt this particular
time, would he a grand political movement, by
which he and they would throw rrporr the Harri
son party the resposibilty of having caused the
present embarrassment in dm country, and tho
odium of uot wishing to relieve dm people from
it. We ure waiting with somo curiosity to hear
from tlm Governor, and to see what wise mea
sures ho will recommend for the relief of the peo
ple-
The Resumption Bill has finally passed both
branches of tlm Legislature, and only [wants tho
signature of tho Governor to become a law.
Tlm House meets in the morning, afternoon
and evening. Tho Legislature will probably ad
journ about tlm 24tli inst. Last night Mr. Webb,
member from Jackson county, died in n fit. Tho
Darien Bnuk is now under discussion—two or
three measures have been proposed—which will
be adopted I cannot say.
In haste,! urn yours truly.

FROM OUR CORRESPONDENT.
MILLKDG EVILLE, Dec. >5
The Senate took up the hill to alter the consli-
tutiou, so ns to reduce the number ofthe Legisla
tor*.
The bill was supported by Messrs. Gordon,
.Miller, Spencer and Beid, opposed by Messrs.
Cone, Chastain, Graves and Bl.ickshear, The
debate wns nutmnted on both fide*, hut failed to
bu pnHsed by nn even majority!! It would hnve
required two thiJVl* to change the constitution.
There is no measure that has been before the
Legislature of more importance Ilian the reduc
tion of [tlm number of its members. It is very
strange that no mode or manner of reduction can
bn proposed to suit the members; nnd a reduc
tion can never bo effected until the pcoplo elect
their representatives with a view to this impor
ter! t measure.
The bill rejected this morning, made very large
concessions to the small counties, and they need
not expect any more favorable proposition.
The Senate has passed a resolution instructing
the Commissioners of the Western aud Atlantic
llnil Road, to lay the superstructure of the read
from While Hall (or the S. E. terminus) to Cass
county.
The following message was received from his
Excellency the Governor:
EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT,
Mii.lkdoeville, 14th Dee. 1540.
Gentlemen nf the Senate,
. and I louse of Beprcsenlatiees:
.Since your assemblage on the 2d nit. the Cot
ton Crop of (he present year has been generally
gathered, and tho quantity raised has fallen so far
below the most reasonable calculation, that with
out forbearance on the part of creditors uot to be
expected, the pecuniary distress of the people for
the next year will be unprecedented aud ruin
ous. I feel it my duty therefore, to cullyourat-
tentioi; t» tliis subject before your adjournment,
that you may adopt such constitutional measures
for the relief of the people, a* yonr wisdom may
suggest as expedient and proper.
The Central Bunk, buthenod ns it is nnd ne
cessarily must bo by appropriations for the sup
port of Government, cannot extend further ac
commodation*, and if you concur with mo in
opinion, that the exigency demand* nt your hinds
some effort for the aid of the people through tho
difficulties ofthe eusoiug year, disappointed as
they are of tho usual means of meeting their en
gagements by the almost total failure of the Cot
ton crops in some places, and its great diminution
every where, you caiiuot turn your uttention too
anon to the subject.
Being unapprised of any measure proposed by
you for this object, and not being willing to in-
\yj“ The balance of the Central Bail Bond, ex
tending from the Oconee to Macon, wns put un
der contract, on quite favorable terms, in ibis
p'ace, on the 7ih inst. The contractors are to
take the bonds ofthe company, licnring8 porch
interest, pnyable iu five years, fortlie completion
of tl:c work. This insures, we learn, the com
pletion of the road some time early in the year
1842. Tlio depot at Macon is to bo located on
tho Eastern side oftlm river, near the bridge.
This road has already opened now nnd bright
ening prospects to tho interests of Savannah'
and will ho nfgrent importance to a large portion
ofthe np-country, which is already deriving
sential advantages from it.
Some step should be taken in this city to open,
hy rail road ora good turnpike, a communication
with it. This is nil important to the interests of
this place.—Millcdgrrille Recorder.
RESUMPTION BILL.
The following is the resumption Bill, ns it
